Agree regarding tooling. So much so that I wrote Denoflare (https://denoflare.dev/) to make writing Cloudflare Workers using standard Deno a breeze: no wrangler, toml, webpack, npm etc required

Denoflare ♥ Cloudflare R2

I wonder to what extent this is due to competition from Deno (& Deno Deploy). Deno Deploy is new and probably haves less users than Cloudflare by a wide margin, but (before this announcement) I would prefer to use Deno Deploy or Fly.io instead of Cloudflare Workers. Deno follows the same philosophy…
